Package: mdadm Version: 2.5.6-5 Severity: important I'm trying to create a raid array, and mdadm is unable to find /dev/md0. I originally installed my system on a single drive. I have now added a second drive that I intend to mirror the first drive with. The first step of course requires me to construct a raid array on the second drive, but mdadm isn't able to.
I run: mdadm --create /dev/md0 -l 1 -n 2 missing /dev/hdd1 to create a raid 1 array with 2 disks, 1 missing. The result I get is: mdadm: error opening /dev/md0: No such file or directory Perhaps this is a bug in udev instead? I have udev version 0.100-2.3 installed, the latest at this time. 0.100-2.2 didn't work any better hence upgrading to the version in unstable. -- Package-specific info: --- mount output /dev/hda1 on / type ext3 (rw,errors=remount-ro) proc on /proc type proc (rw,noexec,nosuid,nodev) /sys on /sys type sysfs (rw,noexec,nosuid,nodev) udev on /dev type tmpfs (rw,mode=0755) devshm on /dev/shm type tmpfs (rw) devpts on /dev/pts type devpts (rw,noexec,nosuid,gid=5,mode=620) usbfs on /proc/bus/usb type usbfs (rw,noexec,nosuid,nodev) --- mdadm.conf DEVICE partitions MAILADDR jlquinn --- /proc/mdstat: Personalities : [linear] [multipath] [raid0] [raid1] [raid5] [raid4] [raid6] [raid10] unused devices: <none> --- /proc/partitions: major minor #blocks name 3 0 244198584 hda 3 1 241770186 hda1 3 2 2425815 hda2 22 64 244198584 hdd 22 65 241770217 hdd1 22 66 2425815 hdd2 --- initrd.img-2.6.17-1-k7: 21624 blocks etc/mdadm etc/mdadm/mdadm.conf lib/modules/2.6.17-1-k7/kernel/drivers/md/md-mod.ko lib/modules/2.6.17-1-k7/kernel/drivers/md/linear.ko lib/modules/2.6.17-1-k7/kernel/drivers/md/multipath.ko lib/modules/2.6.17-1-k7/kernel/drivers/md/raid0.ko lib/modules/2.6.17-1-k7/kernel/drivers/md/raid1.ko lib/modules/2.6.17-1-k7/kernel/drivers/md/xor.ko lib/modules/2.6.17-1-k7/kernel/drivers/md/raid5.ko lib/modules/2.6.17-1-k7/kernel/drivers/md/raid6.ko lib/modules/2.6.17-1-k7/kernel/drivers/md/raid10.ko sbin/mdadm scripts/local-top/mdadm --- /proc/modules: dm_snapshot 15968 0 - Live 0xf2c49000 dm_mirror 19216 0 - Live 0xf2c32000 dm_mod 50520 2 dm_snapshot,dm_mirror, Live 0xf2c3b000 raid10 21120 0 - Live 0xf08e1000 raid6 102928 0 - Live 0xf090f000 raid5 30272 0 - Live 0xf08eb000 xor 14472 2 raid6,raid5, Live 0xf08c8000 raid1 20992 0 - Live 0xf08c1000 raid0 8000 0 - Live 0xf0802000 multipath 8448 0 - Live 0xf084b000 linear 5760 0 - Live 0xf0820000 md_mod 69524 7 raid10,raid6,raid5,raid1,raid0,multipath,linear, Live 0xf08cf000 --- volume detail: --- /proc/cmdline root=/dev/hda1 ro --- grub: kernel /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.17-1-k7 root=/dev/hda1 ro kernel /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.17-1-k7 root=/dev/hda1 ro single kernel /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.16-2-k7 root=/dev/hda1 ro kernel /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.16-2-k7 root=/dev/hda1 ro single kernel /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.16-1-k7 root=/dev/hda1 ro kernel /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.16-1-k7 root=/dev/hda1 ro single kernel /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.15-1-k7 root=/dev/hda1 ro kernel /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.15-1-k7 root=/dev/hda1 ro single kernel /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.14-2-k7 root=/dev/hda1 ro kernel /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.14-2-k7 root=/dev/hda1 ro single kernel /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.14-1-k7 root=/dev/hda1 ro kernel /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.14-1-k7 root=/dev/hda1 ro single kernel /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.12-1-k7 root=/dev/hda1 ro kernel /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.12-1-k7 root=/dev/hda1 ro single kernel /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.11-1-k7 root=/dev/hda1 ro kernel /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.11-1-k7 root=/dev/hda1 ro single -- System Information: Debian Release: 4.0 APT prefers testing APT policy: (990, 'testing'), (500, 'unstable'), (500, 'stable') Architecture: i386 (i686) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Kernel: Linux 2.6.17-1-k7 Locale: LANG=C, LC_CTYPE=C (charmap=ANSI_X3.4-1968) Versions of packages mdadm depends on: ii debconf [debconf-2.0] 1.5.8 Debian configuration management sy ii libc6 2.3.6.ds1-7 GNU C Library: Shared libraries ii lsb-base 3.1-15 Linux Standard Base 3.1 init scrip ii makedev 2.3.1-83 creates device files in /dev Versions of packages mdadm recommends: ii exim [mail-transport-agent] 3.36-18.1 An obsolete MTA (Mail Transport Ag ii module-init-tools 3.2.2-3 tools for managing Linux kernel mo -- debconf information: * mdadm/autostart: false * mdadm/initrdstart: all mdadm/initrdstart_notinconf: false mdadm/initrdstart_msg_errexist: mdadm/initrdstart_msg_intro: mdadm/initrdstart_msg_errblock: * mdadm/warning: * mdadm/start_daemon: false mdadm/mail_to: jlquinn mdadm/initrdstart_msg_errmd: mdadm/initrdstart_msg_errconf: * mdadm/autocheck: true -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
